How was the Voting on Primary Election Today?

We've been hearing low voter turnout is expected for today's primary election in California, but there are a lot of hotly-contested elections in Sacramento County.

Joining me is Sacramento County Registrar of Voters Jill Lavine.

SPCA Pet of the Week

Name: Blue

Breed: American Staffordshire Mix

Color: Grey/White

Age: 14 years

Sex: Male

Blue is a sweet, 14 year old boy who was found abandoned in a house. We assume that he spent most of his life outdoors. Unfortunately, all that time spent outside left him with skin cancer on his underbelly. We've done as many treatments as we can (neuter, removal of masses, & bloodwork). Now we need your help to find Blue a wonderful home so that he can receive all the love he deserves for whatever time he has left. Blue loves every person he meets, seems to prefer female dog friends, and would like to live in a cat free home. Will you give him the warm home that he deserves?

The Sacramento SPCA & Lasher Elk Grove Subaru have teamed up to hold a Mega Adoption Event on December 10th. We are offering a special $20 adoption day on Saturday, December 10th from 11am-6pm. Come down and find your new best friend!
